 Post subject: Space Ace: inserting coin displays title screen?

I thought that the new beta didn't bother with fileframes for games like Space Ace.

I have the 20th Anniversary edition of Space Ace and Loader 2.1.46. When I play Space Ace, it seems to play fine except when I "insert coin" I get a title screen with the Space Ace logo and not a screen like in Dragon's Lair that asks for more coins.

Is my version on the wrong frame?

Also, I notice part of a previous animation playing when one starts.

Can you give some specific examples of this?

Everything else you described sounds normal.

Sorry Matt, I guess I'm not familiar with how Space Ace played in the arcade.

I was assuming that in a multi-coin game, after the first coin is inserted, a screen would come up that says "insert more coins" or whatever... like it does in Dragon's Lair. The way Daphne does Space Ace now (ver. 1.0b using the downloaded torrent video) is when the coin is inserted, the frame that comes up when waiting for the additional coin(s) is the Space Ace logo from the intro.

Is my assumption that the proper frame should be "insert more coins" incorrect?

Ya, you should see the space ace logo when inserting coins.

But I am not sure about seeing previous animation. If you could give specific details about what you are seeing, that would be helpful.

Matt... after experimenting, I found what I was looking for. The version I was thinking of was "Enhanced v1.0" game version, which fixes the "insert more coins" screen to what seems to me to be the proper (although apparently, not original) screen. This ROM version also adds sections that I thought might be clipped.

Thanks again for your efforts with the new beta! Sorry for throwing silly questions your way.
:oops:
